>>582836> how do I load my pack?> medium weight gear high and away from the body> light weight gear low and over the hipsI've seen this several times before it doesn't makes sense; you want the
heaviest gear low inside the pack and close to the spine / hips for the best
balance and lowest center of gravity, with medium weight and then light gear
progressively being packed higher up in the pack and further away from the
body.
>>582837> Do not forget to pierce packages that are already sealed with air (noodles,> candy bars, granola bars, crackers) with a needle or thumbtack. They will> be sealed in the bad and this lets the air go out wiving you a tighter seal and> maintaining it's integrityThis is just stupid. Factory sealed foods are filled with nitrogen gas (not "air")
to preserve them and the amount of nitrogen gas in a candy bar is miniscule
and will have no effect on the combined vacuum sealed package.
Punching holes in the factory packaging will only result in the food spoiling
sooner and/or contaminating other foods with their smell.
